How to Slow Down and Find Peace This Christmas
Manage episode 523307149 series 3684098
Do you ever feel like December moves at lightning speed? The lists, the noise, the rushing from one thing to the next — and somewhere in the middle of it all, peace slips through your fingers.
In this episode, Ken Robinson talks about the quiet side of Christmas — the side that often gets buried under the busyness. He reminds us that God’s invitation to “Be still and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10) isn’t a command to stop living; it’s an invitation to breathe again.
You’ll hear:
- Why stillness feels so hard in a world that never slows down
- How Jesus modelled rest and prayer even when crowds pressed around Him
- Simple ways to create moments of calm in the middle of real life — a morning pause, a quiet walk, a cup of tea on the back porch
- How stillness becomes worship when we stop striving and rest in God’s presence.
Whether you’re racing through shopping lists or longing for a breather, this episode will help you find peace that lasts longer than the holidays. You’ll discover that stillness isn’t about escaping your life — it’s about inviting God into it.
Take a few minutes, slow your pace, and let this conversation remind you that the greatest gift you can receive this Christmas is the gentle, steady presence of Emmanuel — God with you, right now.
